Análise mecânica após reforço femoral proximal com polimetilmetacrilato em orifícios duplos alternados
2020
Objective To evaluate, through a biomechanical assay, the maximum load, energy, and displacement necessary for the occurrence of fractures in synthetic models of femurs after the removal of cannulated screws and the performance of a reinforcement technique with polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) in different combined positions. Methods In total, 25 synthetic bones were used, and they were divided into 4 groups: the control group (CG), with 10 models without perforation, and the test groups (A, B and C), with 5 models each. The test groups were fixed with cannulated screws using the Asnis technique, and they had the synthesis removed, and two of the holes formed by the reinforcement technique with PMMA were filled. The biomechanical analysis was performed simulating a fall on the large trochanter using a servo-hydraulic machine. Results All specimens of the CG and of groups A, B and C presented basal-cervical fracture of the femoral neck, except for a single model in group B, which presented a longitudinal fracture. An average of 5.4 mL of PMMA were used to reinforce the groups with filling. According to the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Tukey multiple comparison test, at the level of 5%, we observed that the CG presented significant differences in relation to groups A and C in the following parameters: maximum load, energy up to the fracture, and displacement. Conclusion We observed that groups A and C, when compared to the CG, showed significant differences in the observation of displacement, maximum load, and energy until the fracture.
